For this brooch, I wanted to use my ceramic piece with diamonds on, but I didn't want the metal part to just hold the piece, I wanted it to be extra decoration and detail, not just functional. I decided to make a diamond shape to hold the ceramic piece, just by tension, not using glue or attaching it in any other way. this worked well, and I then soldered on a pipe along one edge, to hold a pin so that it could be a wearable item. I then made the pin, and cut another diamond to make an end for the pin, which would continue the pattern and theme further.
I made another brooch in a similar way, and I think these two brooches could be worn together, and depending on how they are positioned, could make other patterns.
